Abstract: Nine chilli genotypes were evaluated for yield and yield attributing characters during rabi season at Vegetable Improvement Scheme, Central Experimental Station, Wakawali. Among nine genotypes ACSS9818 x BC-24 exhibited significantly superior performance with the production of highest green fruit yield per plant (0.719kg), maximum number of fruits (229.73) per plant, green fruit yield per hectare (9.14T) and maximum pickings (5.47) over rest of progenies. As regards to other yield components, the progeny ACSS9818 x Pant C-3 was earliest (66.47 DAT) days with respect to first picking, highest green fruit weight (3.37g) and fruit diameter (1.19cm), progeny Pant C-3 x Konkan Kirti recorded maximum length of fruit (9.01cm). Overall performance of the progenies revealed that progenies BC-24 x Konkan Kirti, ACSS9818 x BC-24, ACSS9818 x Pant C-3 and Konkan Kirti are the superior progenies for most of the traits studied under konkan climatic conditions among the nine chilli progenies.
